Description

Today we are very fortunate to be joined by one of the most remarkable and inspirational former rugby players we know. Ed Jackson had his life changed almost 4 years ago now when he dived into a swimming pool, hit his head and was paralysed from the neck down. Since then Ed has shocked everyone with his drive and determination in what has been a startling recovery.Now an ambassador for multiple charities, Ed is going against the odds and completing startling challenge after challenge. Ed talks to us about his journey and although physically his life is harder, there have been so many positives and lessons learned from this and now he is striving to do everything he can to give back and have a positive influence on society.A fascinating talk about the psychology and way Ed has gone about dealing with this and what is next for him in terms of challenges and events. We even get an exclusive about something he has planned for later this year!It was absolute privilege to have Ed on and we hope you enjoyed this as much as we did.
